High on a hill in the best neighborhood in the city, you'll enjoy views from the mountains all the way to downtown. This house captures the dream of Los Angeles in the perfect location - quiet enough to hear the hummingbirds, but close to the vibrant action in the neighborhood. And you're just 12 minutes from downtown! There's plenty of indoor outdoor California living with two bedrooms and an open plan layout. Primary bedroom has a king bed, and the other has two twins. The open plan living room, dining room and kitchen lends itself to being together. The front doors open onto a full deck with outdoor dining and a built-in day bed. Down a few stairs to the backyard is another outdoor dining area, along with a swing and trampoline. The verdant garden full of wildlife and birds is a quiet oasis in the middle of the city. Highland Park, sandwiched between downtown Los Angeles and Pasadena has long been an artistic haven. It was incorporated into the city in 1895 and soon became the epicenter of the Arts and Crafts movement — a fact still evident today in its homes with wide eaves and Victorian relics. Highland Park has twin main drags — York Boulevard and Figueroa Street — both stocked with third-wave coffee shops, artisan bakeries and pretty stores peddling vinyl and vintage handicrafts. - The New York Times
